Officially released on July 29th, the smash single immediately skyrocketed to the #1 spot on the iTunes Overall Top Songs chart and has spent the 13 weeks since its release in the Top 5 of the Billboard Hot 100.

The track’s acclaimed music video enjoyed its world premiere during the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards where the three ladies also delivered the explosive first-ever live performance of the song. The video was recently “VEVO certified” having amassed over 100 million views. Produced by Max Martin, Savan Kotecha, and Ilya, the anthem successfully brought together three of modern music’s biggest icons for a musical event that has spanned genres and generations.

The song also heralded the arrival of all three superstar artists’ latest projects beginning with Ariana’s chart-dominating My Everything which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 upon its release this past August and Jessie J’s highly anticipated Sweet Talker which debuted at #10 after its October release. Nicki Minaj is currently gearing up for the release of her next LP, Pink Print which is set for a December 15th release.
